The browsers are lined with Chrome

Last night I downloaded Chrome to see what all the fuss was about.  For those who missed it, yesterday Google released a Beta version (aren’t they all Beta?) of a new open-source web browser which promises the capacity to run applications speedily, securely and simultaneously within the broswer.  Allowing each tab to run in isolation from each other.  If one tab should encounter a bug, then that tab is simply closed down leaving all other tabs running which is great and I also like the way your browsing history is displayed when a new tab is opened.  I haven’t managed to get my application shortcuts working yet, and can’t see how I can integrate Delicious within the tool bar which is annoying, but I am sure I will find it once I spend time having a proper play.  For those who want to know more, Google have put together a comic book explaining the features behind Chrome which you can view here.

    Kind regards

    Clearly Lilly this isn’t some new tool that is hitting the market, it is actually a spelling mistake. Thanks for flagging.

Got something to say?
